Were there any specs with the carb kit? If so, there should be a float level measurement.
If you have the old float, there will be a "level line" stain where the old float used to sit in the fuel. You can look at where that line was, get a good idea where the new float should rest on the needle valve with the top inverted.
When adjusting the float level, be sure not to apply pressure to the needle. It will cut the rubber and cause it to stick or leak.
Also the fuel supply to the carb must be CLEAN! If any rust or trash is coming through the line, it WILL find it's way into the needle and seat, cause it to flood. If this happens, sometimes you can turn off the fuel, drain the carb, then turn the fuel back on and it will flush out the debris.
Sometimes a suspected flooding carb in not really flooding. A true flooding carb will drip fuel any time the fuel valve is on. But, any updraft will drip some fuel following a failed, choke assisted start. It will stop within a few seconds though.
